Sixième Conférence de Trondheim sur la biodiversité concernant "Obtention de bons objectifs de la biodiversité en travaillant pour le développement durable », Trondheim, Norvège, 1 - 5 février 2010

Madame / Monsieur,

L'objet de cette notification est d'attirer votre attention sur la sixième Conférence de

Trondheim sur la biodiversité, intitulée "Obtention de bons objectifs de la biodiversité en

travaillant pour le développement durable», qui se tiendra du 1er au 5 février 2010 à Trondheim,

en Norvège. La conférence sera organisée par le gouvernement norvégien en collaboration avec

le Programme des Nations Unies pour l'environnement (PNUE) et le Secrétariat de la Convention sur la diversité biologique (CDB). Les cinq conférences de Trondheim sur la biodiversité organisées depuis 1993 ont été

l'occasion pour les décideurs, les gestionnaires et les scientifiques de fournir une base

constructive, transparente et scientifiquement rigoureuse pour les principales questions discutées

dans le cadre de la Convention sur la diversité biologique (CDB). La conférence de février

examinera le statut et les enseignements tirés de l'objectif de 2010 et fournira à la CDB une base

solide pour développer des objectifs de la biodiversité. Elle fournira un apport

scientifique à la quatorzième réunion de l'Organe subsidiaire chargé de fournir des avis

scientifiques, techniques et technologiques (SBSTTA-14) et la troisième réunion du Groupe de

travail spécial à composition non limitée sur l'examen de l'application de la Convention (WGRI-

3), les deux réunions se tiendront à Nairobi en mai 2010. La conférence contribuera également

aux efforts du PNUE sur des questions et processus de la biodiversité et à la célébration de

l'Année internationale de la biodiversité en 2010. Un programme de la conférence est en cours de

développement, il comportera des études scientifiques, des présentations de politiques, des études

de cas pratiques et des discussions de groupe qui fourniront des idées et de l'inspiration aux participants.

Information note on the sixth Trondheim Conference on Biological Diversity, to be held in Trondheim, Norway, 1 - 5 February 2010 "GETTING THE BIODIVERSITY TARGETS RIGHT -

WORKING FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT"

The Trondheim Conferences on Biodiversity

The five Trondheim Conferences on Biodiversity held since 1993 have provided an opportu- nity for policy makers, managers and scientists to provide a constructive, transparent and scientifically sound basis for key issues being discussed under the Convention on biological diversity (CBD). The sixth Trondheim Conference on Biodiversity will be held 1 - 5 February 2010 in Trond- heim, Norway, and this information note provides information about conference objectives, program outline, conference outputs and organisational and practical information on prepara- tions and participation. The conference will consider status and lessons learned from the 2010 target and will pro- vide CBD with a sound basis for developing post 2010 biodiversity targets. The conference will be hosted by the Norwegian Ministry of the Environment on behalf of the Norwegian government, in collaboration with the United Nations Environment Program (UNEP), the Secretariat of the Convention on Biological Diversity (SCBD), the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) and other relevant Norwegian ministries.

Conference objectives

The Trondheim conferences provide a forum where participants are updated on and ex- change views on key issues of relevance to CBD, providing a platform that stimulates dis- cussion and does not need consensus on issues. The conferences create a transparent, positive and constructive atmosphere that bridges science and policy and develops recom- mendations based on the best possible scientific data and information. Earlier conferences have contributed constructively to progress on key issues under the CBD, and have also provided capacity building, inspiration and networking opportunities for participants. The sixth Trondheim Conferences will provide science-based input for the fourteenth meeting of the CBD's Subsidiary Body on Scientific, Technical and Technological Advice (SBSTTA-

14) and for the third meeting of CBD's Working Group on Review of Implementation (WGRI-

3), both meetings to be held in Nairobi in May 2010. The timing of the conference is such that

outcomes can be integrated into the documents to be available for the two meetings. In particular, the conference will contribute to item 3.4 of the proposed SBSTTA-14 agenda, on "Examination of the outcome-oriented goals and targets, and associated indic ators, and consideration of their possible adjustments for the period beyond 2010". Through this, the outcomes of the Trondheim Conference will also feed into the preparatory processes for the United Nations General Assembly Session in 2010 such as the UNEP Special Session of the Governing Council and Global Ministers of Environment Forum (GC/GMEF), ongoing efforts through the Envir onment Management Group (EMG) to provide consolidated inputs into defining the future elements of the global biodiversity targets from UN Agencies, and to the tenth Meeting of the Conference of the Parties (COP-10) in Nagoya,

Japan, in October 2010.

Based on the characteristics of the Trondheim Conference and on consideration of the need for providing scientific inputs to key issues to be discussed under the CBD and in UNEP in

2010, the following objectives have been set for the conference:

Increase understanding and awareness of scientific, technical and policy issues fac- ing SBSTTA-14 and WGRI-3 and provide a sound basis for developing a post 2010 biodiversity target framework Contribute to UNEP's efforts on biodiversity issues and processes and to celebrating the International Year of Biodiversity in 2010 Provide increased knowledge and understanding as well as inspiration for participants on issues relevant to setting post 2010 biodiversity targets.

Conference outputs

Based on the objectives outlined above and on the specific need for developing input to SBSTTA-14, the following outputs will be produced from the Trondheim conference: Chairs' Report, containing the Conference Chairs' conclusions and recommendations made on the basis of presentations and discussions in the conference. Conference Proceedings, containing inter alia all presentations, scientific input, writ- ten output from group discussions and a list of participants. Specific messages tailored for other audiences, which may include UNGA, UNEP and the Global Environment Facility (GEF) General Assembly session. The above outputs, conference presentations and other conference material will all be made available on the conference home page. The conference may also provide input to the CBD Secretariat for their finalization of documentation for SBSTTA-14 and WGRI-3. There will in 2009 and 2010 be a number of other meetings and conferences that are rele- vant to the objectives of the 2010 Trondheim Conference, and we are actively seeking to avoid duplication and to use the comparative advantages of this type of meeting place.
